[Intro]
If you lucky, you get old
Old timer told me (Yeah)
"You ain't gon' be able to fuck the same
Drink the same, hang out the same"
I'm like, "Damn!" (Once a man, twice a child)
You get what I'm saying? (Yeah)
It's like, I wanna be running around forever like, you know?
Once a man, twice a child (Yeah)
It's like a baby again
[Chorus]
Strong motherfucker when you're young
I ducked a razor, ducked some punches, even ducked a gun
Nintendo Duck Hunt, I ducked police, I had to run
Meanwhile, when you get old, you might become futile
My old style is a rough of my new style
My old girl dope but I love my new girl
So when I'ma slow down this merry go round called life?
I was a youngster with a fever, moms brought cold ice
[Verse 1]
And I was young, scared, she ain't care, she made me fight
Fifty-two sweep you haymaker right
When I get old, I hope that I can stay this fly
Once a man, twice a child
From mama's boy to preschool to college to now employed
Now you on, got your first crib, she's having your firstborn
Went from buying the finer toys with your boys
To buying toys for your boy
It's crazy how fast he's growing for sure
Grandpops, he told me ‘bout his days of old
One day I'll be him on the porch, sippin' on something cold
And it stuck with my soul, I been divided at the road
Hot-headed as a youngster, confronted, I might unload
Now listen, knowledge I received as a seed, as a G
That would feed my personal frequency
Transcends through all, travel through walls
My ministry we ain't know we was livin' hazardous
Savages, first niggas in New York with Bentleys
Tyson, Kedar, Puff, Stoute and then me
Before Many Men was out we went on tour and took 50
Live while you got the strength to, health you should tend to
Look, all of us ain't gon' get old I hope this message hit you
For real
If you lucky, you get old
Old timer told me (Yeah)
"You ain't gon' be able to fuck the same
Drink the same, hang out the same"
I'm like, "Damn!" (Once a man, twice a child)
You get what I'm saying? (Yeah)
It's like, I wanna be running around forever like, you know?
Once a man, twice a child (Yeah)
It's like a baby again
